Pride Plumbing was called out for several plumbing issues. The customer showed us issues with a hose bib attachment, kitchen sink faucet, and a master bathroom's Gerber toilet. We inspected the hose bib and found that the hose pipe had a deteriorated gasket. We replaced it with a new one and thread-taped the threads due to the style of connector it had. In the kitchen, we found that the faucet's mounting nut and washer were missing so we gave the customer options on some new faucets we could replace it with. In the master bathroom, on the toilet, we changed out the flapper and tightened the nut on the water supply stop going to supply line due to how loose it was. We then provided a cost estimate to run a new water supply line from the center of the driveway, underneath a fence, to a chicken coop and add a hydrant-style hose bib.
Pride Plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to repipe and replace the drain lines under the house in the crawlspace, going to a) the fixtures in the kitchen (sink and dishwasher) and one bathroom (sink, toilet, and bathtub/shower) - replacing the toilet bowl's flange and wax seal, the P-traps underneath all the sinks, and the bathtub/shower's waste and overflow; and b) the washing machine - installing new PVC piping, fittings and supports under the house and up through the flooring for each fixture.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a leaking outside anti-siphon hose bib spigot due to it having a broken handle. Per the customer's request, we went underneath the building in the basement, cut the hose bib’s water supply line, and used a PEX cap to cap it off. We also provided a cost estimate to replace a leaking pressure reducing valve (PRV) at the water meter (attaching it to the existing black roll outside main water supply line with new PEX piping and fittings and adding a ball water shutoff valve).

Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak behind an AquaSource toilet. Our inspection found that the toilet tank's tank-to-bowl gasket was leaking. We turned the water off to the toilet; drained and removed the tank; used a Lavelle 481BP Korky tank-to-bowl gasket kit and replaced the gasket, bolts, and rubber washers; reset the tank; and tightened the bolts. We also replaced the tank's water fill valve with a new Fluidmaster PRO45B model and tested for leaks with no further issues. We provided a cost estimate to replace the toilet with a new Gerber Viper model. This would include inspecting/cleaning/replacing the flange, replacing the toilet bowl, toilet tank, flapper, water fill valve, tank to bowl gasket and bolts, seat, wax ring gasket, toilet bowl bolts, toilet bowl bolt washers, toilet bowl bolt caps, and above-floor stainless steel braided water supply line.
Pride Plumbing came out and removed and replaced a leaking butterfly valve and a three-foot section of copper pipe in the ceiling. We attached the valve and new piping to the existing copper piping using ProPress fittings.
Pride Plumbing responded to a sewage backup in the home. After inspecting, we found the septic tank full. We called in our septic pumping truck, uncovered the septic tank, removed its lid, pumped it out, cleaned the tank’s filter, ensured proper drainage and flushing, reset the lid, and covered the tank back up.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a toilet bowl leaking at its base. We pulled the toilet, cleaned and inspected its flange, replaced its wax ring gasket (with a new Mainline ML11580 model), reset the toilet, reinstalled its toilet bowl bolts and caps and the toilet tank's above-floor braided stainless steel water supply line. We tested for leaks and proper operation with no issues.
